Our popular LEVEL UP! series continues with latest special guest, Christy Clark, the Former Premier of British Columbia!
Christy Clark led Canada’s third largest province for over six years. Throughout her tenure, Clark demonstrated the strongest performance of any Canadian Premier for economic growth, fiscal management and job creation.
Christy retired from political life in 2017 as the longest serving female Premier in Canadian history and the only female Premier in Canada ever to be re-elected. She was also the first Cabinet Minister in BC to give birth while holding office.
Today, she is a Senior Advisor at Bennett Jones LLP. She serves as Chairperson of the governing board for Roots of Empathy, an international non-profit, as well as the CN Vancouver Community Board. She co-chairs the Advisory Board for the Max Bell School of Public Policy at McGill. She is also a Founding Visionary for the Prosperity Project, a non-profit dedicated to mitigating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Canadian women who are disproportionately affected.
She is also an Associate Member of the InterAction Council, an international organization where former heads of state collaborate to find solutions to various global challenges. Additionally, she serves as a Director on a number of corporate boards.
In 2018, the Women’s Executive Network (WXN) recognized her as one of Canada’s Top 100 Most Powerful Women. She has also been inducted into the WXN Hall of Fame.
We are excited to hear her experiences and learn some valuable insights!
